Familiar lessons on astronomy ; designed for the use of children and youth ..
An elementary astronomy primer written by Lydia Folger Fowler and issued in New York by Fowlers & Wells in 1848 for schoolchildren and young readers. The wood engravings show the full moon's maria, a globe ringed by ships and horizon sightlines, comets streaking through star fields, and bare line diagrams of planetary bands, all built from dense parallel ruling.
